MADISON, WIS.—The United
States National Student Associa-tion
(NSA) was today notified that
it has been voted to associate mem-bership
in the American Council
on Education.
'NSA is the only student organiz-ation
to hold membership in the
Council which has been influential
in the shaping of American edu-cation
policies and practices dur-ing
the past 30 years.
NSA was also invited to send a
representative to the Council's an-nual
meeting in Washington, D. C.
on May 6 and 7.
Representing more than 806,000
students in 281 colleges and uni-versities
in the United States,
NSA is also the only student or-ganization
which has been granted
membership in the National Edu-cation
Association and the U. S.
Commission for UNESCO.
Robert S. Smith, NSA's repre-sentative
on UNESCO, was recent-ly
elected to the executive com-mittee
of that body.
NSA is a non-partisan, non-sec-tarian
representative intercollegi-ate
organization formed two years
ago to serve the needs of students
of the United States, and to pro-mote
their interests and welfare.
"Waltz King"
To Appear In
Concert April 8
Through the cooperation of Ab-erdeen
Greater Attractions,
NSTC's A Cappella choir will be
financially able to make a long
awaited spring tour. Wayne King,
one of the music world's all time
favorites, will bring his orchestra
and company of entertainers to the
Aberdeen Civic Arena for a con-cert
on April 8. Net proceeds will
be used to finance the choir tour.
The Waltz King will bring his
entire radio-recording orchestra on
tour with him, many members of
which have been with King since
the famous orchestra was first or-ganized.
In addition to the orches-tra,
King will present a varied
group of singing and instrumental
artists.
History Dept.
Features Records
Of Famous Events
Prof. R. S. Thompson's modern
history class at NSTC will enter
a new phase this week when they
employ audio-education in the form
of recorded voices of some of the
world's most famous personalities.
Mr. Edward R. Murrow, distin-guished
news analyist, has collect-ed
transcriptions of hundreds of
speechs during the period 1933-45,
and has pared them down to about
45-minute listening time in an al-mub
called "I Can Hear It Now."
Murrow has done a fine job in
editing and making the continuity
smooth with his intermittent voice
narration. The album starts out
with Will Rogers, and ends with
Gen. Douglas MacArthur accepting
the surrender of the Japanese on
the batleship Missouri. In between,
history is repeated in the form of
the frenzied mouthings of Adolph
Hitler, the cultured tones of Frank-lin
D. Roosevelt, and the emotion-choked
voice of Arthur Godfrey as
he describes FDR's trip to his final
resting place.
Many other famous people are
included, and as a whole the group
of records gives one a clear and
revealing picture of those hectic
years.
Record Attendance
At Art Exhibit
A record crowd attended the an-nual
spring students' art exhibi-tion
held in the NSTC art studios
Monday evening following a con-cert
by the college band. The ex-hibit
was one of the most exten-sive
in the history of the art de-partment,
and many were unable
to view because of the large crowd.
The display of oil paintings and
pastels by William Menz, Jr.,
Sioux Indian artist from Rapid
City, attracted special attention
from those attending the exhibit".
Featured also was a collection
of original designs by Marvin
Jones, Wetonka, Bernadine Artz,
Aberdeen, Arla Koch, Aberdeen,
and Win. Menz, Jr., Rapid City,
which were reproduced in the "Ev-eryday
Art" magazine, a publica-tion
for art teachers and supervis-ors.
The cover of the magazine
displayed an original design for
Christmas wrapping paper in full
color by Miss Artz.
Art students, Lowell Baltzell and
Wayne Wenz of Aberdeen, showed
their original enlarged photo-graphs,
examples of light and sha-dow,
composition, line and pers-pective.
Among the advanced art stu-dents
whose works were outstand-ing
at the exhibition were Mrs.
Bernice Anderson, Bernadine Artz,
Katherine Hyde, Shirley Lowe,
Wm. Menz, Jr., Mrs. N. H. Me-waldt,
Marian Schuchardt, Donna
Schumacher, Mrs. Carl Stromberg,
Sylvia Culp, Arthur Hight, Meyer
Silverstein, Josephine Lillemoe,
Gerald Epstein, Donna Lowe, Mary
Lloyd, Caroline Fornell and Robert
Townsend. The exhibit was ar-ranged
by Prof. E. Kenneth Baillie
of the art department.
Former art student, Mrs. Mar-garet
Scherf, nee Peggy Leap, of
Faulkton, attended the art exhi-bition
and took a number of the
students' works to Faulkton where
she will have them for sale in an
antique and gift shop which she
opened this week.
College Band
Plans Tour
The College band under the di-rection
of Prof. Harvey Moen, is
planing to make its concert tour
to McIntosh, McLaughlin and Pol-lock
April 5 and 6.
The band, which recently pre-sented
a concert in the college aud-itorium,
was highly praised for
its performance. There were
comments that it was one of the
finest concerts the college band
has given in recent years.

Music Department
To Appear
In Musical
H.M.S. Pinafore
H.M.S. Pinafore or "The Lass
That Loved a Sailor", by the fam-ous
English team of Gilbert and
Sullivan is to be presented by the
Music Department of Northern
States Teachers College in the col-lege
auditorium the evenings of
May 10th and 11th, under the di-rection
of Professor John L. Re-zatto.
H.M.S. Pinafore is an entirely
original nautical comic opera in
two acts and is said to have the
gayest and catchiest score written
by Sullivan.
The first production in America
was presented at the Fifth Avenue
Theatre on the evening of Decem-ber
1, 1879 and we find a con-temporary
report of that perfor-mance
as follows: "Last evening,
H.M.S. Pinafore was in command
of its builders. Mr. Sullivan con-ducted
in the orchestra, and the
master hand was clearly discerni-ble
in the result. It seemed al-ready
as though human ingenuity
had been exhausted to provide ap-propriate
business for the opera,
and that everything thinkable had
been thought of. But last night's
performance was everywhere stud-ded
with new points. When the
scene opened, the sailors were all
seen at work, flemishing down the
ropes and attending to various
ship's duties, while the whole was
under the supervision of the busy
and important little Midshipman.
This gave an animation to the first
scene that it generally lacks—but
the really noticeable difference in
the interpretation was the orches-tration.
There was breadth, color,
and tone, together with a harmon-ious
blending with the vocalism
which was utterly wanting in what
may be called the home-made Pin-afores."
Try-outs for the soloist parts are
now being held and the entire cast
will be announced in the near fu-ture.
Extensive costuming of the
cast will be featured, and the stage
setting is to be an exact copy of
the scenery used by the orginial
D'Oyly Carte Opera Company.
Sure and the Irish have had their
fling again. St. Pat's day has come
and gone, along with Northern's
colorful annual Pat and Mike
dance. Nancy Nelson, Aberdeen,
and Danny Beck, Britton, both sen-iors
at Northern, were the ruling
royalty at the dance March 18,
sponsored by the N Club. Approx-imately
60 couples danced to the
music of Johnny Cacavas and his
"Er:n Go Bragh" orchestra.
The decorations by the N Club
added much to the Kilarny atmo-

hung from the center of the gym,
